This has nothing to do with putting miles on the car, I have no problem with that, this is my deal.
At my job I get paid salary plus commision on the jobs I sell, and even more $$ on top of that for the jobs I actually do. Lets just say, that a dyno session here cost me $140, and down there was $40, I'd loose a lot more than $100 by taking off of work. So it would be to my finantial advantage to pay more for a dyno closer to home.
Now as far as going after work,,, I would have to get down there ASAP, hopefully not wait too long to get my tune time, and most likly have to leave soon after to make the ride home. Does'nt seem fair to me.
Now I'm Just one guy so if enough people wanna do it, hey I miss out, but when this was proposed to me I was in 100% due to the fact of cost and location. If we have a seperate day that accomodates myself and others better, then I am still in, but I just can't justify either loosing all the $$ from missing work, and having to get the short end of the stick by rushing back and forth to PA while paying the same $$ to tune as everyone else who will have the advantage of spending a day there and leaning things throughout the course of the day

i just talked to keith on the phone. basically we sorta decided everything needs to be finalized by friday for everyones sanity ours, steve's, everyone's . i am gonna go dyno and tune thursday regardless of steve kan coming or not. keith also said he and the other three will also dyno and tune regardless if steve can't make it thursday. i spoke to the judge and he said he will come and tune my car, he will try and help the other people but he doesn't want to be responsible if something happens. steve already said he can come down for friday and saturday, so now we need to know who and where and when on friday and saturday for everyone that wants kan to tune them. obviously that means on the street or dyno. if you want to be tuned on the dyno expect to pay $150 per hour just for dyno use. there is a local dyno

i don't know if there is anything else we need to discuss. i am going to see if anyone wants to come dyno/tune on thursday, some of the more experienced people like boostn7, tattoo etc.
like i said before i would like to have everything 100% organized by friday this week.

rxrotary2_7's last question is a good one. after reading all this i'm confused about if steve is going to the 26th or not.
also listing the location and times would be helpful...not complaining, this is a ton of work and i appreciate y'all who are helping out.
